SW Umwelttechnik subsidiary OMS Hungaria has simultaneously won
major orders, each worth EUR 6 million (m), for the Group's
Engineering sector, in Hungary and Romania.

A consortium led by OMS Hungaria has won the order to supply a
sewerage system for the municipality of Örbottyán, Hungary.
OMS Hungaria, in which SW Umwelttechnik holds a 70% interest, is
the Hungarian market leader in municipal wastewater treatment
plants.

The project involves laying about 90km of sewer mains and 30km of
pressurised pipelines, as well as constructing 60 pumping stations.
OMS Hungaria's share of the EUR 20m contract as lead contractor
amounts to about 30%. Work is to begin immediately and completion
is scheduled for June 2010. At almost exactly the same time OMS
Hungaria won a EUR 6m contract for the rehabilitation and
expansion of the sewerage and drinking water networks in Zalau,
Romania. Work on the order, placed by Somes Water, is to begin at
once and completion is due by the end of 2010. These orders should
enable SW Umwelttechnik to extend its market leadership, and
ensure that the Engineering sector enjoys good capacity utilisation
through 2009.

Founded in 1910, SW Umwelttechnik remains a family business, though
it has been listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange since 1997. The
group is widely identified with sustainable enterprise and rapid
expansion in Central and Southeastern Europe (CSE). Its
innovative environmental technology products are contributing to
infrastructure renewal in CSE.
